The density of solid a is 2.70 a 6.86 g sample of solid a is transferred to a graduated cylinder containing 5.00 ml of water, and a 7.11 g sample of solid b is transferred to a graduated cylinder, also containing 5.00 ml of water. which solid sample displaces the larger volume of water? by how many milliliters?

The second solid displace more water, and the difference among this two solids is 0.09 ml

Explanation:

Considering that density is 2.70 for both solids. Density formula is =m/V.

1.- First we are going to calculate the volume that is displace in each solid considering same density.

2.- If D = m/v  so V= m/D

3.- solid 1 = 6.86 g/2.70 = 2.54 ml of water that is displaced

    solid 2 = 7.11 g/2.70 = 2.63 ml of water that is displaced

4.- Do the subs traction of both solids: 2.63 ml - 2.54 ml = 0.09 ml
